Cynthia is inspired to work with collage using "up cycle" high end product packaging. She welcomes commissions. She can use your own collection of up cycle fashion packaging to create a one-of-a-kind unique piece of art. Or pick out a finished piece to add something new, different, modern to your art collection.

"My collages illustrate stories from my life's experiences and social issues that interest me. It's not important if the viewer understand these stories, my goal is that the images be interesting and unique. I sometimes paint a butterfly or moth as a symbol of the human spirit and the diverse verity of shapes, patterns, and colors displayed in the wings of these fragile creatures continue to keep my interest in painting them." -Cynthia Medanich
